Ok in my 12 team league im 2-1 but both my wins are against are against an 0-3 and 1-2 team. I havent been scoring many points so ive gotten lucky and its making me think my team isnt as good as i thought. I made some pickups this week and got Cutler (on a hunch that he will turn it around), Pitta, Hawkins, Tynes. Im still exploring some trades but nothing will happen his week. Im just wondering if you guys would fill my lineup out any different.

My team in my money league is 2-2 (we had a double header last week), but I am the lowest scoring team in the league, thanks to my pathetic QB's. I had to do something so I made a bold move and pulled off a huge trade.

I traded

A.J. Green
Jay Cutler
DeMarco Murray

for

Tom Brady
Mikel Leshoure
Rob Gronkowski

I think this is gonna kickstart my scoring. _________________"People say you should always do the right thing, but sometimes there is no right thing. And then, you just have to pick the sin you can live with." -Ig Perrish

I traded with a rookie to our league. Believe it or not, all I did was post on our message board that I needed a QB. He came to me, with almost, this same exact deal. He was offering Brady, Gronkowski and Cedric Benson for Green, Cutler and Murray. I just asked him to sub Leshoure for Benson and the deal was done.

The funny thing is, he was 4-0 at the time of the trade and he's now left with Cutler and Jake Locker as his QB's. I don't know what he was thinking?

DeMarco Murray has been pretty underwhelming this season as well. The Cowboys have been getting terrible play from their interior O-Line and there is no running room for him. I think that there is a chance, I upgraded the RB position by swapping Leshoure for Murray. The only player I really wanted to keep was A.J. Green, but I knew I had to include him if I wanted a good QB. I picked 12th in that league, so there was no great QB's left, when I chose. I'm left with Reggie Wayne, Torry Smith, Rob Gronkowski, Santonio Holmes, Michael Crabtree and Golden Tate as my WR's, so I'm in still pretty good shape at WR. Wayne has been consistent, Smith has been great the last 2 weeks and Gronkowski is supposed to begin a bigger role this week as a receiver. Holmes had a solid week as well._________________"People say you should always do the right thing, but sometimes there is no right thing.

I was just wondering, how is the board's fantasy league going? Who's doing the best so far and what are the standings? I was just curious._________________"People say you should always do the right thing, but sometimes there is no right thing. And then, you just have to pick the sin you can live with." -Ig Perrish

My entire draft was autopicked so thats my excuse for going 0-4

I believe it. That is why I couldn't participate. I wasn't able to be there for the draft and I don't trust autopick. Until you actually see how the draft is shaking out, it's just too hard to make picks ahead of time. You might have a list with three QB's at the top (Aaron Rodgers, Tom Brady and Drew Brees for example) and then then a bunch of RB's and WR's listed with solid QB's like Matt Ryan and Matt Schaub further down your list. In that case, if there is an early run on QB's, you're in trouble. If you're actually at the draft and see the run on QB's, you can adjust your list and make the necessary changes, so I totally understand. I refuse to use autopick. I got burned too many times._________________"People say you should always do the right thing, but sometimes there is no right thing.
